After transferrin injection to the slow m. soleus of guinea pig no immunohistochemical changes in myosin composition with monoclonal antibodies (AB) against fast myosin heavy chain (HCf) have been found. All muscles fibers in intact and experimental animals were identified as slow ones (type I of muscle fibers). After colchicine treatment of nerve trunk innervating slow muscle, some muscle fibers reacting with monoclonal AB against myosin HCf have been found. However, after colchicine treatment of nerve trunk and transferrin injection also some muscle fibers in slow muscle reacting with monoclonal AB against myosin HCf have been found. In appears that transferrin probably can not be the factor of neurotrophic control for myosin composition in skeletal muscle.
